Accelerating the Integration of Electric Vehicles in a Smart and Robust Electricity Infrastructure

This project aims to develop a new standard for dimensioning and operating electrical grids specifically for electric vehicle charging by load flow analysis will be conducted at different voltage levels of the network in order to quantify the effect that charging strategies and behaviors have on the aggregated power ratios of the network.

The calculated ratios will help distribution system operators in swiftly identifying network bottlenecks and take the necessary measures such as load management and new investments to ensure that electric vehicle penetration can continue to grow at an accelerated rate without threatening the robustness of the network.

Energimyndigheten assesses that the project adresses a key challange for building electrical grids as well as it is adressing a need at the electrical grid companies for better analysis for investments and stability of the grid in areas with higher koncentration of electricla vehicels.
